I'm going home, tho home's where I've come from I've got to know what's been going on no mistakes got a mixtape of all my favourite songs chose this day gotta escape and it won't be too long 'til the photograph by the phonograph and the faces that I see will just climb down off their picturehooks and be staring back at me I know all it takes is to hear those breaks and I know just where I'll be I'll be right back in the garden with the moon and Sandy Martin Great Western Way there's not been a day I've not been thinking of you driving round in stolen cars just say you'll stay tedious and grey and we'll be drinking partners Not long ago the factory was strong now they wanna know just what's going wrong they build an estate where the kids play it's the same old song gotta risk take what a pisstake and now it's almost gone but in a photograph there's an olden craft and the faces of a team consigned now to a library book now their engine's out of steam and a sorry face they put in the place where a smile there once had been but we'll be right back where it started when we move and it's departed Great Western Way there's not been a day I've not been thinking of you driving round in stolen cars just say you'll stay tedious and grey and we'll be drinking partners

Give me your attention span now give me the light give me the sound give me the stage give me the crowd giving it everything I've always done there's no question on the box the mic came in I'm a serving suggestion you know the way it's transposing one bud opens up and another needs closing I'm all for those frozen looks I usually get when I'm rhyming cos people haven't figured me out yet but.. just look at their faces when I play with words I go all these places but I see these people are all looking at me funny and I'm wondering what can that be? It's such a strange kind of feel, feeling so strange what should I do? what should I say? should I make some adjustments and go with the flow be that kind of rapper you already know? Show me those extention plans show me the size show me the ground show me the weight show me the sound show me the way I'm supposed to behave when I'm rhyming I know sometimes I might confuse you with my timing but hey you know what they say it's the way I've been raised I found that my school was so boring they could've showed me books and made me teachers pet but they never cos they never quite figured me out yet but.. just look at their faces when I'm done with words I take them these places but my report card said I was never happy unless I had all the class looking at me It seems whatever I do, whatever I say wasn't quite true it just came out that way should I make my excuses and step to the back?

No Sense 02:22
Sometimes it doesn't make sense, the cost of living it makes no sense the always giving it makes no sense it makes no sense can't make no sense hard for me to leave my residence with all these living this high pretence but I've got this (sweet) melody in my head ever going round even if if this worlds intents, so many governments years expense is all towards the wars on no evidence it makes no sense can't make no sense hard for me to find all of my rents, I'm down to my last 15 pence and you wonder why this (sweet) melody's in my head? well I'll tell you now you should come and see where I live those streets that are known for the drugs and the violence where the people are so paranoid can't talk so they're walking around in silence every single day I say I must get up get out get involved with the resolute make another nice track make an impact have a handclap and a rap and a clever loop but even that shit don't make sense cos nowadays rap shit don't make sense it makes no sense can't make no sense for all the pioneers intelligence all they wanna hear is 50 Cents I'm lucky I've this (sweet) melody in my brain cos it's keeping me sane keeping my brain going from an animal down to a vegetable this strain over this pain keeping me down I hope you're fully entertained it's been a drain I'll see you all at the afterparty give me cocaine I'll be (sweet) I'll be right as rain, come again but if I did that it wouldn't make sense if I done snort that it wouldn't make sense for all I've been taking it wouldn't make sense can't make no sense caught up in a world of such expense losing my mind plus all of my friends would I still have that (sweet) melody up there I don't know but I know I've gotta get thru this fence if I want an omelette I've gotta break eggs even if this world makes no sense it don't make sense it'll never make sense so I've gotta keep my vibe intense and all the way thru my existence try to to give the world these melodies in my mind

Cry 03:08
I never was so glad since I got out of detention I never was one who worked so hard to play the rules and how it read on my report I wasn't one who paid attention and every so often I would cause those in the room to rebel but I never said punch your headmaster or kick over your table you'll feel much better then you'll feel more stable if you smash your blackboard and burn all your paper you'll be much older then you could leave school and kick the arese off this world find yourself a weapon you'll only end up in jail or heaven the cause of this world isn't your children who get angry and cry I live in a house without a garden or extention I live in a town that makes it hard for me to move out of it and one of my pastimes is checking out for records hey some of them move me and some of them tell me to rebel but they never say mess with your mark or do yourself injustice they say if the waters high you'll rise above this go grab yourself a shotgun and blow your post office they don't mean literally they just mean find a key that kicks the arse off this world find yourself a weapon you'll only end up in jail or heaven the cause of this world isn't your children who get angry and cry the problem's not ours the problem's in the house of lords the house of frauds how they work to keep one up and another one down but when you look around you see there's not many I know out there who can afford a house abroad oh it's hard enough to find home even in your town

Civilian 02:58
I'm a civilian and as a civilian I've been told to follow opinion and form no opinions of my own I live in a system, I live in a system of control I'm no-one of wisdom no no just one of a million out there who see every day all those waves overflowing as each of my days I give thanks I'm still dry hear all those tales of what radars are showing as leaders of nations are wondering why they taste their champagne as volcanoes are blowing and flee for those caves when it all hits the fan sneer at campaigners finger and blame us you can't entertain us with that, no no just look at the book look at the book and take another leaf from the page of the paranoid take a revolution if it good to make illusion of a sunny day you're telling me this sunny day will come and wash all the rain away I'm just looking at a bird of prey picking on the people where they lay hey hey stop in and look drop in and look I never said there's no god even if I've never been one who always prayed that hard but if he's there now come on mister engineer get it right get it right I'm not a criminal no, you see the criminals are you the ones in the yellow I know the ones in the yellow reds and blue if I couldn't be on stage here now I would have it hard we try to be so cool and I would be somewhere other yes I would be somewhere out there just feeling no ways as the days drift over me and seeming I'm ok but deep down there's this man feeding me tales what revelations are showing and tells me it's going according to plan but they never know what made the sun rise and keeps it there glowing and what makes the moon pull the waves from the sand sneer at campaigners finger and blame us you can't entertain us with that, no no just look at the book look at the book and take another leaf from the page of the paranoid take a revolution if it good to make illusion of a sunny day you're telling me this sunny day will come and wash all the rain away I'm just looking at a bird of prey picking on the people where they lay hey hey stop in and look drop in and look I never said there's no god even if I've never been one who always prayed that hard but if he's there now come on mister engineer get it right get it right
